Greenland is the world’s largest island. From north to south it is 1,600 miles long and equal the distance between New York and Denver. Much of the great wedge-shaped island lies north of the Arctic Circle in frigid Arctic environment. Approximately 85 percent of the island’s surface is covered by an ice cap.
Cruisers can see ice that is constantly on the move. The great weight of accumulating ice and snow causes it to spread slowly outwards to the edges of the ice cap. Once glaciers reach the sea they break up into tremendous icebergs that crash into the water and drift away.
South Greenland has an elaborate route of Viking ruins and modern day sheep farms. Many of Greenland’s greatest places like calving glaciers, mountain hiking trails and Norse culture sites are only accessible by water. The perfect cruise in Greenland is spotting a humpback and getting an impromptu whale watching tour.
